Title: Oz 3.5.3 Vnc Server
Post by: sfgreg2006 on January 30, 2006, 01:06:30 am

HI
 Ive seen there is a fbvncserver from the sharp rom, and have read about others having some problems with this on the OZ distro. Is there a vnc server on one of the feeds? When I tried the fbvnc one, it needed zlib, and I think that there are incompatiblities with using the sharp rom, several posts said to use the feed on oz.

Also, when trying to use the oz package manager, it didn't work, with several errors so I was just using ipkg install packagename. Also didnt take ipkg -d ram package name

Thanks
Greg

Can you tell us what the errors were?

What machine do you have? I just read a thread where I think you were talking about a 5600. This machine doesn't have a ram disk so /media/ram shouldn't work.

For other installation points, make sure there's a dest line in /etc/ipkg.conf for the location in question.

Good point about ram for dest, yes I did specify ram, assuming you can specify dest for sd card of use the config file as you mentioned.

Thoughts on vnc server question for openzaurus??

Thank you for your quick reply to my questions.

Yes all on SL-5600...
